Claude Raffestin prägte entscheidend die französische, italienische und portugiesische Geographie der 1980er und 1990er Jahre. Im deutschen Sprachraum ist Raffestins Theorie zur Territorialität indes kaum bekannt. Die Textsammlung beabsichtigt, die zentralen Komponenten einer Geographie der Territorialität im Sinne Claude Raffestins zusammenzuführen und für den deutschen Sprachraum zugänglich zu machen. Daraus eröffnet sich nicht nur eine neue Sichtweise auf das Konzept der Territorialität als geographisches Betrachtungsprogramm zur Räumlichkeit sozialer Existenz. Die kritische Rezeption Raffestins leistet ebenfalls einen zentralen Beitrag zur deutschen Raumdebatte der letzten Jahre.

Claude Monet was the leading French Impressionist landscape painter. His work featured in the groundbreaking Impressionist exhibition of 1874, where the title of one of his paintings led to the name of the highly influential movement. A feature of his style was to paint en plein air, showing a single subject in different lighting conditions, whether it be trees, haystacks or the water lily ponds in his own garden at Giverny. The book describes Monet’s technique, the materials he used, and his impact on his contemporaries as well as successive generations of artists.

Claude Lefort’s Political Philosophy Democracy, Indeterminacy, Institution (Political Philosophy and Public Purpose)


Free Download Claude Lefort’s Political Philosophy: Democracy, Indeterminacy, Institution (Political Philosophy and Public Purpose) by Mattia Di Pierro

This book proposes a new interpretation of Claude Lefort’s thought focusing on his phenomenological method. Although all scholars recognize the influence of Merleau-Ponty, so far no one has demonstrated the fundamental coherence between Merleau-Ponty’s theory and the main concepts proposed by Lefort; in particular between the concept of institution and the definitions of social and democracy. If Merleau-Ponty uses the idea of institution to think beyond the division between subject and object, to think together continuity and difference, permanence and change, this same concept allows Lefort to understand society as both conflict and unity. From this starting point, this study will attempt to clarify Lefort’s concept of the political and his interpretations of modernity, humanism, and the work of Niccolò Machiavelli. These very concepts will show the difference from structuralism, Michel Foucault’s contemporary theory and theories of immanence. At the same time this study highlightsan internal tension in Lefort’s own thinking: between autonomy and experience, institution and insurgence.
